What is an Energy Bill?

An energy bill is the monthly statement sent by your electricity provider that explains how much power you have used and the charges applied. It usually highlights the main usage cost, often called the energy charge in the electricity bill, along with fixed charges, service fees, and taxes. When someone asks what is an energy bill, it is simply the document that combines all these costs into the final amount you pay.

By understanding your energy bill, you can keep track of consumption and identify areas where savings are possible. Simple habits such as switching off unused appliances, opting for energy-efficient lighting, or managing cooling and heating systems can help reduce energy bills over time.

Key elements of an energy bill:

• Units of electricity consumed.
• Main usage cost (energy charge).
• Fixed fees and taxes.
